Abstract

The Production of complex products is easily possible with the help of additive manufacturing. By using additive manufacturing products may be mass-produced. Compared to traditional subtractive manufacturing, Additive manufacturing is advantageous in short design cycles, suitable for manufacturing complex structures, and high material utilization. Polymers and composites are frequently used in AM technologies, which have evolved into a variety of industrial and emerging applications. Among the many materials currently used in 3D printing are ceramics, metals, polymers, and concrete. ABS and PLA thermoplastics are the most often used materials for agricultural 3D printing since they are easy to print and relatively cheap. This article provides an overview of 3D printing technologies, materials, and applications in agriculture.
